Issue of view composer

What will happen if my Virtual Center server dies and there View Composer on that? I'm not worried about the VC, but most customers of the view will not be able to connect to their VM because View Composer is down. Is this true? Thank you

Not exactly...

View Composer is a service that is used by View Manager only during the creation and deployment of Virtual Center linked clone desktops. After this, View Manager is a component that manages connections user to virtual desktops. You can have more than one View Manager server (replica server) to manage the traffic of users. In fact, multiple View Manager servers can work behind a load-balancing solution (WLBS MS for example).

I have not tried, but you might have your VC + services View Composer down and still be able to connect to (created previously) virtual desktop pools managed by View Manager server/servers.

  • View Composer or View Manager need most of the CPU and network?

    Hello

    I intend to start experimenting with the customers see 6-8 to find the notion of vView...

    I installed View Manager to a virtual machine: (x 64) svr Win2008 connected to the same subnet that all thin clients in the view are connected.  My VCenter server where I installed View Composer works to a dedicated old (physical) (x 64) svr Win2008 connected to the view Manager / computer thinclient subnet via a 100 Mbps firewall.

    More traffic view CPU and network for thin clients would be the composer or Manager?  I wonder if the 100 Mbps "bottleneck" and the former composer server hardware will be a problem.  Or it's okay with such a low customer account...?

    Second, the View Composer installer asked a database connection.  He would be allowed to use the same (SQL Express?) as the Installer installed VCenter?  If Yes, where can I find information about how to create a composer under SQL Express database...?

    Thanks for the comments on these issues

    Customers of 40-50 reviews could be possible in SQL express without a lot of questions. Go through your response, it is clear that the subnet22 is the network that will be using the network more than any other w.r.t. view desktops. (and your assumption is right).

    The network configuration in the ESX to connect virtual machines to the Subnet22, this is called VMNetwork

    User name by default and passoword for the SQLExpress will be the account used to connect and install the server vCenter in windows machine (it is windows authentication). You can connect as below.

    • Download and install SQL Management Studio from the microsoft Web site in the virtual center host operating system
    • Open SQL studio, then click on connect, the server name is "localhost\SQLEXP_VIM" and select windows authentication
    • This way you can manage SQL express and create the new database.
    • You can also view the DSN for vcenter server which automatically created during installation

    Most of the VirtualCener servers are VMs I believe, but according to my understanding, both are very popular.

    Defenitly peacekeeping vCenter in VM have a lot of benefits and felxibilities.

  • Problem with certificate on View Composer

    Hello

    I'll try to explain my problem as well as possible.

    I upgraded my server from 5.2 to 6.2 view composer. And I would like to replace the default certificate with my own build by my internal CA (on our domain controller).

    I created a requet.inf found here: VMware KB: using Microsoft Certreq to generate signed SSL certificates in VMware View Horizon

    And replace the CN, OR O, etc. by my information. Here is the content:

    - request.inf-
    [Version]

    Signature = $Windows NT$

    [NewRequest]

    Subject = "CN =View_Server_FQDN, OR =Organizational_Unit_Name, O =OrganizationName, L =City_Name, S =State_Name, C =Country_Name"; ". replace the attributes of this line with the help of example below
    KeySpec = 1
    KeyLength = 2048
    ; Can be 2048, 4096, 8192, or 16384.
    ; Larger key sizes are more secure, but have
    ; a greater impact on performance.
    Exportable = TRUE
    FriendlyName = vdm
    MachineKeySet = TRUE
    SMIME = False
    PrivateKeyArchive = FALSE
    UserProtected = FALSE
    UseExistingKeySet = FALSE
    ProviderName = Microsoft RSA SChannel Cryptographic Provider
    ProviderType = 12
    RequestType = PKCS10
    KeyUsage = 0xa0

    [EnhancedKeyUsageExtension]

    OID=1.3.6.1.5.5.7.3.1 ; This is for server authentication

    [RequestAttributes]

    ; SAN = dns =FQDN_you_require& dns =other_FQDN_you_require

    ;-----------------------------------------------


    After I generated the CSR with the following command: certreq-new request.inf certreq.txt


    After that I generated the certificate with our CA in DER64.


    In the MMC on the composer of server I import the certificate. Always go to the right.


    And the last thing is to replace the default certificate with the IVR command: SviConfig ReplaceCertificate


    It's done. I restart the composer server go to the dashboard to see the flag. But I got a redflag about the composer with the following message: the server certificate does not match the url


    I searched this message on Google and the error appear to be in the "NC", I checked the synthax and the name of the server (FQDN) are correctly write. I also see that we can use SAN (alternative name of the object).


    But I still got the same error.



    Anyone has an idea about this?


    Best regards

    Excuses that became automatic registered please ignore previous comment. Good now back instead on certificates of composer does not work as expected. Please share the result at the bottom of the step

    If you use the utility replace sviconfig from there to return to default certificates the certificate error disappears?

    I am currently deployment of VMWare view for the first time in a test environment and have hit a problem I have not been able to get around despite several searches on google and trial and error.

    Hoping that someone here could suggest something.

    View the VMWare versions are all 6.0.1.

    vCenter is on a device.

    VMWare view connection manager is on a 2012 R2 VM server.

    VMWare view dial is on a separate server 2012 R2 VM.

    I have a 2012 SQL on a separate server 2012 R2 VM Server installation.

    SQL databases have been set up for the composer to be able to reach it, it uses ODBC 64-bit via SQL Server Native Client 11.0.

    I tried troubleshooting by exchanging 32-bit, but this is not connected, it seems so 64 bit is correct.

    I have a windows 7 64-bit Enterprise Edition VM under my Golden image. There are VMWare tools on it and the VMWare agent on it.

    The virtual ipconfig/release performed top machine, he was then stop and a snapshot taken as my source.

    The problem is that when I go to deploy a pool of offices, I get the above error.

    If I connect to the VM created via vCenter readers persistent and temporary show very well.

    Based on the error, I tried different settings such as change the path for the reader of DVD VMs of D: to Z:, spread unique persistence and the temporary disks on multiple data-stores or data stores and even remove the drive of DVD of VMs completely. I have also looked at newspapers under composer view but find nothing to explain the behavior.

    SQL Server seems to work for configuration through the error logs and virtual machines are created and added to AD as expected.

    I must point out that the virtual machines are as linked clones.

    Can anyone offer a clue as to the cause or something, I can check it please, did everything I can think and Googling the error does not come to the top with something useful so far.

    Thank you

    Hello Andrew

    It is possible to deploy desktop computers view in two different groups in the same ms as well as two different groups under different domain controllers. However, where are deployed clones full and linked clone depends on where the image of the mother or the model is present. If the view desktop computers that are in the same pool will be deployed where the master image is present.

  • Reconstructed View Composer databases, view server connection problems

    I had to go back to a previous snapshot on my SQL database server that was right before I installed the database to View Composer.  Mode to connect to the server, there is a pool for the related clones.  How can I remove the pool?  When I try to delete it, I get an error that I do not remember the hand, but basically it has to do with the fact that see connection to the server could not find the swimming pool in the database.  Any ideas?

    You would need to connect via ADSI Edit.    Check out this KB for instructions on how to remove obsolete work and clones, http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1008658positions.   This should give you an idea on how to connect to the ADAM database and navigate.

    I have installed and configured the composer db on this server and the service is started successfully and can be restarted without any problem.

    Is there a limitation for this work due to the fact that my vcenter Server break a db are disparate?

    The composer software and service must be on the vCenter server.  The database can reside remotely but everything else must be on vCenter.

  • View composer Wizard can not find the AD domain

    Hello

    I'm trying to configure VMware View Composer. I followed the installation guide, but I can not any further only the configuration of "Guest" customization of the Wizard (2nd to the last step!). There is a drop down menu where you select to add the linked clones to, but it is not filled with my domain name (or any other for that matter). Here is a screenshot:http://lh4.ggpht.com/_7R_jnLODiss/TSR4BhA5FGI/AAAAAAAAAuA/dQvhQxNAbOI/s800/VMware_Composer_Pool_023.gif

    This is the view 4.5 and ESXi 4.1. I have composer installed on my machine vCentre (standard Win 2008 64 bit VM) and the connection to the server in its own VM, also W2008 64 bit. The ad server is also a virtual machine and also W2008 64 bit. All servers are part of the domain and domain accounts work OK on each machine. The domain use the default schema (Windows 2003 Server) for AD. The guest for the virtual desktop OS is Win7 32 bit.

    I have been sent the Office a few virtual machines from the same model desktop VM that I used to create the VM base for the foregoing. Then I created these as static pools and they work OK. When I have them deployed since the template customization vCenter them to join the domain automatically without problem.

    I tried to cancel the wizard and leave in case it was a glitch, but no joy, same problem each time.

    Any suggestions gratefully received!

    TIA

    Jules.

    Can you check - part of the vCenter server server configuration?

    Looks like composer for your vCenter settings are misconfigured or not configured.

    When you configure them you must also make sure that the account used for operations of composer has enough privileges in AD (view 4.5 installation guide, p25).

  • View Composer on vCenter 4.1

    I recently updated my server vCenter 4.1 and I try to install this server view composer.  Not quite sure of the database DSN.  I install a 32-bit DSN on the server and when I go through the installation I get an error.  I do not see the DSN I install and when I try to create one with the istall the error I get is... Setup cannot run the ODBC Administrator: odbcad32.exe.  I'm guessing that the error is because it points to the bitODBC 64 and not 32 bits.  It is a 64-bit server.  Can't seem to get the working capital facility.  Any thoughts?  Thank you.
